Ok. So I had 1 harddrive, windows partition of 60GB, had a FC4 partition of 25GB.
I wanted ubuntu instead of Fedora, so I struggled getting the partitions setup in ubuntu install. I was goign back and forth, exiting, re-configuring, trying to get the "no root configured" , until I fixed it. It installed fine, it works (except for wireless). Now It wont let me boot into windows (which works on wireless), I am using grub. It told me that MS windows was detected.... Click next to install bootloader....etc. Now when I try to boot into Windows XP, I get this after I tell grub to boot into windows:
I dont know what this means, or what to do.
I was thinking somehow copy the partition onto my 120GB drive, to back up and re-install XP? Could I do this wit ha boot disk like knoppix?
If you need anymore info, I am here.
Thank you in advanced.

Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
